Stinky man wanted over Vic sex attack

A woman has been sexually assaulted after her car ran out of petrol in country Victoria.

The woman was parked on the side of the road in Wedderburn last month when she saw a dark coloured station wagon pull up in front of her.

She got out of her car to meet the man with the intention of using his mobile phone to call for help.

But the man - aged in his mid-40s and smelling heavily of cigarettes - grabbed the woman and sexually assaulted her, Victoria Police said in a statement on Tuesday when releasing a FACE image of the suspect.
